Gemma Pozzo

I currently have online availability on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

I’m Gemma, a person centred counsellor and psychotherapist offering online sessions throughout the UK. Thank you for visiting my profile. I know it can feel overwhelming to choose someone who feels right for you.

Online therapy can offer a gentle and accessible way to explore what you are experiencing from the comfort of your own space. You do not need the right words or a clear starting point. I meet you exactly as you are and offer a calm and steady presence where you can talk, pause or take time to settle without pressure.

Human connection and authenticity are central to how I work. Everyone brings something unique and I value the honesty and depth that can emerge as people make sense of their world. I am also mindful of the wider systems and pressures that shape how we feel, including academic and work environments, and I hold space for the impact they can have.

I often work with people who feel overwhelmed, stuck or unsure where to begin. Many online clients come to me because they find it easier to open up from home or because they have spent years adapting themselves to cope and now want a space where they do not have to perform. I support a wide range of experiences including trauma, neurodivergence and grief.

Online therapy can be shaped around the way you naturally process. You might find it helpful to communicate through talking, silence, creativity, writing, music or poetry. These can be starting points that help you express what feels difficult to say out loud. Sensory materials can also be part of the process if they support you.

This flexibility allows us to create an online space that feels safe, steady and supportive. It is a space where you can explore, feel or make sense of things at your own pace.

In our first session, we take time to get to know each other and explore what feels important for you to share. There is no pressure to explain everything at once. We move gently and talk about what helps you feel comfortable online, whether that is having time to settle, using silence or finding a rhythm that feels right for you.

I offer sessions through Willow Path Counselling and Psychotherapy. I have availability online on Wednesdays from 10am–4pm and Saturdays from 10am–4pm throughout the UK. I also work in-person, online or by telephone from a therapy room a few minutes’ walk from Glasgow Central Station.

It's really important to me that you can find a therapist who you can work well. Therefore, I am more than happy to offer a free 15-minute chat to find out if working together with me feels like a good fit for you.

If you’re feeling unsure, stuck or disconnected, you’re not alone.

 It can be easy to feel overwhelmed or burned out. People come to counselling for many different reasons. You might be dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, work stress, questions around identity, past experiences that still affect you, or simply a sense that something does not feel right. You do not need to have the “right” words or a clear reason before beginning.

I’m a person-centred therapist, and my work is based on meeting you as you are, without pressure to explain everything perfectly or know exactly where to begin. Therapy with me is not about rushing you towards answers, but creating space to notice what feels difficult, confusing, or unresolved at your own pace.

I often work with people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin. I work with a wide range of experiences including trauma, neurodivergence and grief. I aim to support the way you process and this often includes exploring different ways of working together. Perhaps you find it more helpful to communicate using creativity or silence. Sometimes silence or creativity may include writing you have done, or music or poetry which holds meaning for you and could be a starting point. Maybe you find sensory materials supportive in your processing. This flexibility means we can create a space that supports you in the way you want it to.

If this sounds like something that might fit for you, please get in touch...I would love to hear from you.   

We’ll have regular check‑ins to explore how the therapy feels for you and whether it’s meeting your needs. I don’t have expectations about how quickly someone should move or what “progress” should look like. I’m able to sit with you in places that feel uncomfortable or uncertain, offering steady support as you make sense of things.

I have items such as fidget tools/toys, art materials and other sensory supports as these can help with the therapeutic process.

Accessibility: If you’re planning to come in person, the building has a few stairs up to the main entrance. My room is on the first floor, and there’s a small lift available. If you have any accessibility needs or adjustments that would help you feel comfortable, just let me know and I’ll do my best to accommodate them.

We can talk about what has brought you to therapy, what you’re hoping for, and anything that feels important for me to understand.

I’ll explain how I work, answer any questions you may have, and check in with you about what you need from the space. There’s no pressure to have everything figured out, we go at your pace, and the session can be as structured or open as you need it to be.

If you’re attending in person, I’ll show you the room I work from and make sure you feel settled before we begin. If we’re meeting online or by phone, we’ll take a moment to make sure the connection feels comfortable for you.
